Resumo(s)
professions, and as a hermeneutical philosophy, we assume the interpersonal and intercultural
communication as a systematic interpretation of interests of the parties in an interaction and as the will
of those involved.
In the mediation between different cultural values, the educator and social workers emerge as mediators
between social groups and the most diverse public and private institutions, relying on a multi-topical
hermeneutics for the realisation of the rights and interests of the groups and subjects involved in the
interaction.
The purpose of the mediation process is to seek the autonomy of these groups and people, known today
as empowerment.
If education should be an instrument to promote equal opportunities and an instrument to favour social
justice, school should become a fundamental space to legitimize and strengthen values which structure
the State which is, however, nowadays increasingly multicultural. In this sense school has to seek forms
of intercultural translation as it not only reconstructs cognitive systems but also operates at the level of
personal and group identity processes.
So, prevention, education and transformation versus resolution is a very important way to promote the
empowerment of minorities.
The main objective of this text is of an essayistic and pedagogical nature, trying to show, using examples
of social workers and social educators who work with teachers in Portuguese schools, other ways of
socio-educational intervention besides the action at the end of the line, at the end of the process. The
main idea is to underline the importance of education as a process of (trans) formations throughout
individual and social life trajectories, seeking autonomy, underlining the importance of prevention versus
intervention that many ignore as fundamental for social and educational transformation, which implies
thinking not from the social and educational problems and how to solve them, but, on the contrary,
educating for its avoidance, educating for citizenship, for the social values how to live together and for
an ethics of welcoming and intercultural coexistence.
In terms of some results, Social Workers have, according to our study, more resolving concerns; Social
Educators seem to be more concerned with a dialogical, mediating, empowering and preventive
intervention and finally, therefore more transformative than properly resolving.
